Novell launches an enterprise Linux desktop (NewsForge)
[Posted November 8, 2004 by ris]
NewsForge
takes a
look at Novell's new desktop. "
Novell describes NLD-9 as a
complete "desktop productivity environment." It includes a complete set of
the basic applications enterprise workers need: an office suite, a mail
suite, and browser. Novell has tweaked OpenOffice.org to fill the office
suite chores, Evolution as its mail suite, and Mozilla Firefox for the
browser. That's not all that's included, of course, but those are the big
three items required for basic desktop chores. It's called NLD version 9
because it is built atop SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9. That gives it a
degree of hardening, reliability, and performance that is hard for other
distributions to match."
